Nighthawk X6 AC3200 Tri-Band WiFi Router
Smart Connect
Smart Connect balances your 5 GHz WiFi connections into two different radio bands: the 5
GHz radio 1 band and the 5 GHz radio 2 band. The router uses Smart Connect to choose the
best radio band for your device to give you the best WiFi performance.

Figure 10. Smart Connect
For Smart Connect to work, both 5 GHz radio bands must use the same wireless network
name (SSID) and network key (password). That means that when you connect to the router
with WiFi, you see only one 5 GHz SSID that connects to both 5 GHz radio bands.
Note: If you enable Smart Connect and the SSID and passwords for both
5 GHz radio bands do not match, the WiFi settings for 5 GHz radio 1
overwrite the WiFi settings for 5 GHz radio 2.
Enable or Disable Smart Connect
To enable or disable Smart Connect:
1. Launch an Internet browser from a computer or wireless device that is connected to the
network.
2. T
ype http://www.routerlogin.net or http://www.routerlogin.com.
A login screen displays.
3. Enter the router user name and password.
